I agree, definitions matter. The problem is - different people define things
in the field of ideology according their ideological beliefs. This is not
physics or math where definitions are stable and mostly accepted by
everybody (not always, but mostly). In ideology a definition may be a Trojan
horse - you accept it and with it you accept the whole ideology.
If you do not like Aaron's ideas, may you be so kind to explain what is it
exactly that makes no sense, other than just apply blank negation?

It allows war in some circunstances. Specifically, noone declared war on Hitler
until they were attacked, or someone with who they had a treaty was attacked.

In particular, your loved US didn't declare war on him until Japan was foolish 
enough to attack.

So don't use Hitler as an example of declaring a fair war, because it wasn't.

If power is right, the Hitler had a right to invade Poland. After all,
he had the power to do that.

Saying power is the same as right is stupid beyond belief. Of course
an army guy is indoctrined to believe it.

BTW: could you follow a little netiquette, and start replying in

I see the notion of provocative statement is foreign to you.

It has a long tradition. If I tell you: there is no difference between
an army selling you protection from another army and the mob selling you
protection from another mob, it's meant to make you think.

In fact, you should say WHY what I say is not right, HOW there is a 
difference.

And I say the name for army is mob. Not a good thing, understand.

Well, I don't really give a damn about the bible, to be honest.
It was just an example. You seem to do.

How do you feel about that "the other cheek" business?

The commandments are in the part about Moses. Moses was supposed

written around that time. I seriously doubt it was written in greek.

Conversely, for 35 years Unix couldn't manage to come up with a usable
version for the end users. Catering for small area is fine, but then it
should not be compared to technology aimed at the mass user market. The
requirements and the subsequent pricing are different among other things.

You says "tremendous inroads", others say hardly visible dent in the OS
market.

No, you do :)? Partially because it doesn't show Linux on the the top,
right?

And the number of copies bought, tried once and thrown away aren't in the
statistics either. Not to mention the fact that most of the statistical data
for OSes gathered for US only with little or no regards to other countries.

What would be interesting to see is how you derived the above numbers?
Besides, which OS would have the 80% therefore the majority of the OS
market?

Could, would, should, all it means that it remains to be seen and by no
means it's a guarantee either way. All the sudden and users aren't "end
lusers" once they turn to Linux. Name calling helps a lot, doesn't it?

If you are in the US army, I am 100 times more likely to be killed
by you, or by one of your comrades, or by someone trained by
your comrades to kill people like me, than I am to ever be
protected by any of your kind.

Gang,
    Tmax is fully a 'straw man' created by the pro-gpl-being-free forces.  This
is pretty obvious.  He is sort-of like an internet-site honeypot full of crap.

Don't waste your time on this turkey -- I walked away when I proved that the
GPL code isn't free, and it is best to avoid wasting time.

Actually, it's the other way around.  The only time Scott's arguments
make sense is when he's using his perverted definitions.

Having a fairly fast Internet connection is very important for Debian
users that want to try and keep up to date. The commercial Linux
distributions bring out new releases several times a year. With Debian
the time from one stable release to another is much longer.

I avoided Debian for a long time because I hate dselect. Even the name
I find irritating. I mean, d[e]select to select packages! Still, I was
envious of a friend who just did 'apt-get install app' and it would
install all required packages for the app (it prompts you before it
goes ahead). I then purchased Storm Linux. The simplest Linux install
ever. It is also 100% Debian potato compatible. I've used Ximian/Helix
and red-carpet to keep my gnome packages up to date. Never had a
single problem with either. I'm now playing with Progeny Linux RC2. It
certainly isn't ready for prime time yet but is very close. Since it
looks like Stormix isn't going to survive (a very sad loss) Progeny
looks like it will become an excellent Debian based Linux distribution.

I think this is the biggest fault with Debian. Once a release is
flagged as stable it remains almost static (there are updates and
security updates but basic support for new apps or new versions of
apps stops and all the action is in testing and unstable). Debian's
granularity is at the release level and not at the application
level. If you want to upgrade XFree for example you must use testing
or unstable and then the problems start. The Debian package
maintainers must support stable with new and upgraded apps while they
are working on testing and unstable. If they don't then Debian will
always be a long way behind the commercial distributions and
application developers will support the Redhat's and SuSE's and
continue to ignore Debian even though it is a better distribution if
only for its superb package management. It's a shame that the major
Linux distributions use rpm. Linux desperately needs a standardised
file system structure and a standardised package manager. To date the
Debian package management system is superior to any other I have
used.

Red Carpet is a very good attempt at providing a simple GUI interface
to updating Linux software. If they can hide the different package
management systems of the various distributions then this could be the
best way forward. I hope it succeeds.

Translation: how DARE they not participate in the labor cartel.

Thank you for admitting that Unions are nothing more than labor cartels.

and...as you already said above...cartels are WRONG WRONG WRONG.

Therefore, labor unions are wrong.

You've got it backwards.

A cartel is about the SUPPLY of something, moron.

How about the businessman who has NO freedom to hire someone
who isn't part of the labor cartel?

So, if I go out on strike against you, mr. sliverdick, the entire
        public should automagically support my demand that you give
        me more of whatever it is I'm whining about?

As you said in the first line of your response.....if they don't like
it...let them go work some place else.


Second... how does DRIVING ON A PUBLIC ROAD ADJACENT TO A business
which is under a strike constitute favoritism to either side?

How does merely DRIVING ONE'S CAR justify getting one's tires
ruined?


By the way, the, drivers in question sued the UAW in very pro-union
Macomb County.....and WON.

RSA was patented when F-Secure started marketing SSH2. It led to US licensing issues, 
serious ones.

SSH2 was developed for OpenSSH considerably later: F-Secure is not going to admit that 
it is smaller, more
flexible, and better maintained.

I also agree that RSA is stronger than DSA: it was also not part of the original SSH2 
specification.

*HISTORY*, friend. You gotta know the *HISTORY* to understand why the marketing dweebs 
promulgate these
myths....
